You probably have heard this term before, but are still wondering what it really means. Basically the term alkalizing means increasing the pH value of the extracellular and intracellular fluids of your body so that your body can operate at its full capacity. 

Now, the pH scale is a scientific scale, usually runs from 0 to 14, 0 being the most acidic and 14 the most alkaline, therefore theoretically 7 is neutral. Our bodies have different pH values of organs and fluids, which in most cases need to be in a certain pH range.

However due to our everyday dietary choices we lower our pH and therefore disturb the fragile balance of the pH and send the wrong signals to our body and cells.
